This is absilutely the BEST solution I've seen. Absolutely zero ambiguity.
Quick one, since we're on the topic ...
The website has the CD 104 mounting at -10 and the CD 114 at -8.
Just checking to confirm the accuracy as I would have guessed they would mount at the same point.
No need to describe the design rationale ... I just wanted to confirm ;-)
Thanks!

yeah - that sounds pretty fool proof. Being direct sales instructions need to be pretty much fool proof, so that idiots like me don't mess it up and then go bitching and moaning about the skis skiing like shit - when in fact it is an user error. So a good solution - like the one outlined above - is pretty much fool proof, hopefully.

Not sure if you're uncomfortable finding the center. If that's the case, then do this:
- Measure straight line distance from tip to tail. Let's say you get 176cm for a pair of 177s.
- Mark the midpoint by measuring straight line from tip (176/2=88)
- Double-check the midpoint by measuring 88 from the tail.
- There's likely a small discrepancy, and if you're OCD, split the difference between your two "midpoints". Otherwise, use either of the above for your midpoint.
- Go back 11cm from the midpoint you established to locate the center of boot mounting point.

I can get the numbers up tomorrow. We measure from true center unpressed, so there's a little deviation from Thoms method.

Probably going to get a few shirts even though I missed the group buy. Will be in next year for sure.

182: 830mm
189: 862mm
196: 894mm
CD 104:
181: 797mm
187: 828mm
LD 102:
179: 773mm
186: 803mm
LD 90:
177: 765mm
SD 105:
187: 824mm
202: 890mm
SD 95:
184: 820mm
TD 105:
182: 889mm
